The backstory to Jacob losing his first top tooth is that it was loose all of Labor Day weekend. I kept encouraging him to brush all around it, knowing it would help move it. Then on Thursday morning, Sept. 6th as I was nervously trying to get Ellie soothed and gage if we in fact were headed to the hosptial, Jacob said "it's coming out Mommy, come quick!" I left the poor girl in the den and ran to him as he was beginning to work it out. But then he changed his mind and wanted to wait and let it fall out on its own. I got on my knees and looked my boy in the eye and told him Mommy and Daddy were going to be gone with Ellie for a while and I could not stand to miss his tooth coming out. He sweetly agreed to us giving it a tug and it came right out. We then left right after that. The tooth fairy brought a whole $5 that night.
